Definitions
- the present invention generally relates to aircraft and more particularly relates to a console assembly for use on an aircraft, the console assembly including a stowable support surface.
- Modern flight decks utilize side stick controllers instead of conventional yokes.
- Conventional yokes are located just aft of the forward instrument panel and resides between the legs of an aircrew member.
- Side stick controllers are mounted to a console that is located on either the port side or the starboard side (or both) of the flight deck and are positioned to the side of an aircrew member. By placing the controller to the side of the aircrew member, the space directly in front of the aircrew member becomes available for other purposes.
- a seated aircrew member may use the space directly in front of him or her for various purposes.
- the aircrew member may use a tablet computer device to engage with the aircraft and therefore needs a place to rest the tablet computer device.
- the aircrew member may have paperwork to complete during the flight and needs a surface to support that paperwork while writing.
- the aircrew member may eat one or more meals during a flight and needs a surface to support his or her meal.
- a countervailing consideration is the need to have free space in front of the pilot to permit the pilot to freely move about or reach towards any part of the instrument panel during flight without obstruction.
- the presence of a surface in front of the aircrew member may limit the aircrew member's ability to access all areas of the instrument panel and may therefore be undesirable.
- console assembly that provides the aircrew members with a surface that does not impede the aircrew member's ability to access or view the instrument panel and that does not detract from an otherwise pleasing visual appearance.
- console assembly for use on a flight deck of an aircraft are disclosed herein.

- both the support surface and the mounting assembly are stowed completely within the recess.
- Attached to the support surface is a closeout panel.
- the closeout panel covers the opening to the recess and conceals the mechanical/structural components of the support surface and the mounting assembly.
- an outwardly facing surface of the closeout panel may be adorned with a decorative pattern that is similar in appearance to other patterns on the console. When so adorned, a consistent, uninterrupted appearance is presented across the face of the console that maintains an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a flight deck 20 equipped with a console assembly 22 that is made in accordance with the teachings of the present disclosure.
- Console assembly 22 includes a console 24 .
- console 24 is an instrument panel that houses the display screens, gauges, and readouts utilized by aircrew members to operate the aircraft.
- console 24 need not be the instrument panel, but rather may be any other console mounted in the flight deck of an aircraft.
- Console 24 includes a recess 26 and a recess 28 . Recesses 26 and 28 extend forward into console 24 . Console 24 includes decorative panels 30 , 32 , and 34 positioned on either side of recesses 26 and 28 . Decorative panels 30 , 32 , and 34 present an aesthetically pleasing appearance to occupants of flight deck 20 .
- Console assembly 22 further includes a support surface 40 and a support surface 42 .
- support surfaces 40 and 42 are in their deployed positions and extend outside of recesses 26 and 28 , respectively.
- Support surface 40 and support surface 42 are substantially identical and, for the sake of brevity, only support surface 42 will be discussed in detail. Nevertheless, it should be understood that the discussion herein of support surface 40 applies with equal force to support surface 42 .
- support surface 40 includes a half surface 44 and a half surface 46 .
- half surface 44 and half surface 46 are joined together by a hinge 48 (see FIGS. 4-8 ) and are configured to pivot with respect to one another.
- half surface 44 can be folded over and on top of half surface 46 .
- FIG. 1 half surface 44 is illustrated in an unfolded state.
- half surface 44 must be folded over and on top of half surface 46 in order to stow support surface 40 in recess 26 .
- support surface 40 may comprise a single body.
- half surface 44 and half surface 46 may be joined via a living hinge, via a multi-bar linkage, or via any other suitable coupling mechanism that permits half surface 44 and half surface 46 to expand and contract. This will provide the aircrew member with a larger surface area when deployed and a compact package when retracting/stowing.
- Support surface 40 further includes a pair of mounting arms 49 .
- Pair of mounting arms 49 are configured to engage with a mounting assembly 60 (See FIG. 4 ).
- Pair of mounting arms 49 are further configured to support the support surface 40 on mounting assembly 60 when support surface 40 is disposed the deployed position, in the retracted position, and as support surface 40 is moved between the deployed position and the retracted positions.
- Console assembly 22 further includes a close out panel 50 .
- Closeout panel 50 is attached to support surface 40 .
- closeout panel 50 is disposed below support surface 40 .
- closeout panel 50 will be positioned to cover the opening to recess 26 .
- FIG. 2 again illustrates flight deck 20 and console assembly 22 .
- support surface 40 and support surface 42 have been stowed in their retracted positions within recess 26 and recess 28 , respectively.
- Closeout panel 50 is positioned over the opening to recess 26 and a close out panel 52 associated with support surface 42 is positioned over the opening to recess 28 .
- Closeout panels 50 and 52 are aligned with decorative panels 30 , 32 , and 34 such that together, these five panels present the appearance of a continuous, substantially unbroken trim accent piece for console 24 .
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view presenting an expanded view of the portion circled by phantom line 3 in FIG. 2 .
- decorative panel 30 and decorative panel 32 have a wood grain appearance.
- closeout panel 50 is adorned with the same wood grain appearance.
- any other suitable or desirable pattern and/or appearance may be employed without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure.
- these panels may have a simple painted finish of any suitable or desirable color (e.g., black). Both the alignment and close proximity of these three panels creates the appearance of a continuous, uninterrupted trim component which contributes to the creation of an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
- FIG. 4 is a schematic side view illustrating console assembly 22 .
- recess 26 is defined in console 24 .
- Support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 are disposed in their retracted position within recess 26 .
- Half surface 44 is folded over on top of half surface 46 to give support surface 40 a more compact profile that is compatible with the dimensions of recess 26 .
- Hinge 48 which pivotally mounts half surface 44 to half surface 46 , is visible in this view. Multiple hinges such as hinge 48 may be required to join half surface 44 to half surface 46 .
- Mounting assembly 60 is illustrated in its compressed or retracted state. One mounting arm of pair of mounting arms 49 can be seen joining support surface 40 to mounting assembly 60 .
- a push-push latch 62 is mounted to a surface of recess 26 and is configured to alternately latch and unlatch support surface 40 .
- a latch engaging rod 64 is attached to an end of half surface 46 and is configured to engage push-push latch 62 .
- Push-push latches are known in the art and, generally, are configured to alternately unlatch and latch via a push; if first push unlatches the push-push latch, then a second push will latch the push-push latch.
- a first push by an aircrew member on closeout panel 50 will unlatch push-push latch 62 causing it to disengage from latch engaging rod 64 and unlock support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 from their retracted positions and enable an aircrew member to move support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 to their extended positions.
- This process will be described in greater detail below.
- a second push by the aircrew member on closeout panel 50 will cause push-push latch 62 to engage with and latch the latch engaging rod 64 , thereby locking support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 in their retracted positions.
- a quick release actuator 66 is attached to mounting assembly 60 and is configured such that, when actuated, pair of mounting arms 49 may be quickly removed from mounting assembly 60 .
- Quick release mechanisms are known in the art and any suitable mechanism may be employed to facilitate release of pair of mounting arms 49 without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic side view of console assembly 22 as an aircrew member pushes on closeout panel 50 in the direction indicated by arrow 70 .
- push-push latch 62 is unlatched and releases latch engaging rod 64 .
- Support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 are now free to begin moving towards their extended positions.
- FIG. 6 is a schematic side view of console assembly 22 immediately after the aircrew member stops pushing against closeout panel 52 and releases it.
- a biasing member (not shown) associated with push-push latch 62 (or associated with some other component of console assembly 22 ) pushes on latch engaging rod 64 or on support surface 40 and moves support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 in the direction indicated by arrow 72 .
- This push causes support surface 40 and mounting assembly 60 to begin moving towards their extended positions.
- the push by push-push latch 62 causes support surface 40 to only partially egress from recess 26 .
- Support surface 40 extends beyond the opening to recess 26 by a distance that is sufficient to permit an aircrew member to grip support surface 40 and pull it the rest of the way out of recess 26 .
- mounting assembly 60 may be motorized and may move support surface 40 to its extended position automatically. In embodiments equipped with motorized components that automatically move support surface back and forth between the extended and retracted positions, push-push latch 62 may not be required.
- FIG. 7 is a schematic side view of console assembly 22 after an aircrew member has pulled support surface 40 in the direction indicated by arrow 74 completely out of recess 26 to its extended position. This causes mounting assembly 60 to fully extend as well. In the illustrated embodiment, when mounting assembly 60 is fully extended, no portion of mounting assembly 60 protrudes from recess 26 . Thus, if support surface 40 is detached from mounting assembly 60 in the extended position, there will be no sharp or rough portions of mounting assembly 60 that will come into contact with the aircrew member or otherwise interfere with flight operations.
- support surface 40 is now situated in front of the area where an aircrew member (not shown) will be seated and is therefore in a position to support a tablet computer, paperwork, a meal tray, and a variety of other items.
- the aircrew member may use support surface 40 as shown in FIG. 7 , with half surface 44 folded over on top of half surface 46 .
- FIG. 8 is a schematic side view of console assembly 22 in the extended position after support surface 40 has been unfolded.
- an aircrew member exerts a force on half surface 44 in the direction indicated by arrow 76 .
- This movement causes half surface 44 to pivot about hinge 48 and rotate one hundred and eighty degrees to a position aligned with half surface 46 .
- This same movement causes closeout panel 50 to pivot in a counterclockwise direction (from the perspective of FIG. 8 ) and extend in a downward direction between half surface 44 and half surface 46 .
- closeout panel 50 may be pivotally coupled with half surface 46 and spring loaded to remain in the orientation illustrated in FIG. 4-7 . In such embodiments, the unfolding motion of half surface 44 will move closeout panel 50 in a counterclockwise direction.
- engagement surfaces 80 can be observed.
- engagement surfaces 80 protrude above an upper surface 82 of support surface 40 and are configured to cooperate with one another to support a desk top, a tablet computer device or any other item having a length and/or width that exceeds the length and/or width of support surface 40 .
- engagement surfaces 80 are compressible and have a higher coefficient of static friction than upper surface 82 .
- engagement surfaces may be made from rubber or from any suitable polymeric material. This ensures a robust engagement between support surface 40 and an item that an aircrew member rests on engagement surfaces 80 .
- An end 90 of mounting assembly 60 is configured to permit some amount of deflection of support surface 40 , as indicated by the fragmented portion of support surface 40 illustrated in phantom.
- This capability is to take into account the possibility that the aircrew member may need to lift up on support surface 40 or may have his/her seat adjusted to a height that requires that there be some amount of tilt to support surface 40 .
- This capability may be accomplished through the use of a hinge mount, a pivot, tab-and-slot engagement, or through any of a variety of other ways that permit upward deflection of support surface 40 with respect to mounting assembly 60 .
- support surface 40 may be moved back to the stowed position by lifting up on the distal end of support surface 40 .
- the ability to deflect support surface 40 by a predetermined amount without triggering a retraction of the entire assembly provides a measure of accommodation in the event there is some unintended upward deflection. For example, if the aircrew member unintentionally bumps the underside of support surface 40 while moving, it is advantageous for support surface 40 to have the ability to pivot for a predetermined distance without actuating a retraction.
- quick release actuator 66 may be employed to detach pair of mounting arms 49 from mounting assembly 60 . This action is illustrated in FIGS. 9-11 .
- FIG. 9 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating a portion of mounting assembly 60 and a portion of pair of mounting arms 49 .
- the illustrated mounting arm of pair of mounting arms 49 is engaged with mounting assembly 60 .
- an aircrew member need only push inwardly (i.e., in a direction into the page of FIG. 9 ) on quick release actuator 66 .
- FIG. 10 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating quick release actuator 66 after it has been pushed in the direction indicated by arrow 100 . This action actuates the quick release mechanism and frees pair of mounting arms 49 from mounting assembly 60 . In this state, the illustrated mounting arm of pair of mounting arms 49 can be pulled away from mounting assembly 60 .
- FIG. 11 is a fragmentary perspective view illustrating separation of the illustrated mounting arm of pair of mounting arms 49 from mounting assembly 60 after quick release actuator 66 has been actuated.
- a quick release actuator associated with the other mounting arm of pair of mounting arms 49 would be contemporaneously actuated by an aircrew member so that both arms of pair of mounting arms 49 could be removed from mounting assembly 60 at the same time.
